Did you know that summer programs which address student learning loss qualify for education relief funds? I was pondering this the other day and realized that it is quite possible to make the case for ITF workshops as a form of remediation. As June comes into view, it may also be possible that there are some pools of unspent Elementary and Secondary School Education Relief (ESSER) funds. This is the perfect time to approach your administrator with a specific ask to use those funds for help bringing your students to ITF. With over 375 workshops in all phases of theater, ITF offers a great way to get your students back on track! If you are looking for justification for bringing your student to ITF, here is a form letter you can customize and send to your administrator to request funding.
